the fact that your lead narrative director outright said that DA4 will be political and celebrate diversity i promiseyou is going to completely destroy the game and bioware as a company.
How are politics and diversity going to ruin a game series that has been political and diverse from the start?
The game has never been political and diverse from the start.
Origins did not have a real world political agenda and part 2 barely had any. It had in game politics but that is expected of any rpg.
Inquisition took a completely different turn. Having a transgender character to have one not that it has anything to do with the plot.
Having almost every interaction with iron bull and krem be about her being transgender. What was the point? She isn’t a main character and has nothing to do with the over all plot.
In fact you can have iron bull let her die and pretty much nothing changes other than bull can betray you during trespasser.
That’s not the only example it’s just one of many in inquisition.
If I went on about origins and how it wasn’t about diversity and politics I’d be writing a 20 page response. There are already plenty of youtubers that break it down.
- mcsupersport7 years agoHero+Oh, DA had political and social themes in it, just not ones most people recognize or are such hot buttons with people if they do.
Mage tower and tracking and imprisoning innocent but dangerous people.
The elves treatment as lower class or slaves in cities. Then the actions of the Dalish elves.
Logain and his as actions, in taking the throne.
I could continue and expand on each, but I am back on my phone and that is not the point of this post.- 7 years ago
why does everyone seem to miss the point of this thread? What you're describing is in game politics. It's part of the story and has been done correctly.
what I'm talking about are things like Kremessius Aclassi being a transgendered man and it being mentioned multiple times when speaking to Iron Bull.
"You are a man" Who cares really? Does that have any significance in game? No it's just real world politics jammed in because someone wanted to virtue signal.
